Well, I can only help on one of these. The Miller & Zuehlke / Clifford Club is from Appleton, WI. The WI book says 1909-1920. Podunk? I've been there! John in ID

IMO, it is probable that the word "Podunk" refers to the name of the business rather than the location. Seldom are mavericks found with just the town, although some are. The implication of having just the town name is that the token would be good at every business in the town. So, it could be from the "Podunk Tavern" or "Podunk Cigar Store" - of course we still don't know its location. John in ID
